A new woman’s voice

Yes, columnist Leonard Stern, abortion is a trap for women and for unborn children, too. I was trapped into believing the lies that abortion was a quick fix and just a “clump of tissue.” I was trapped by my parents and boyfriend to abort.

There is a new and growing voice on this issue and it is women like me who deeply regret their abortions, have great sorrow and have been damaged physically, emotionally and spiritually.

We are pro-woman and pro-life and know that aborting your baby should be unthinkable! We urge politicians and doctors to stop abortion as a form of birth control. It is really child sacrifice; and not a medical necessity.

Insofar as “pro-life” is generally just a euphemism for someone who supports forced childbirth, the answer is no. There is no such thing as a “pro-life” feminist, anymore than there’s such thing as a pro-genocide pacifist.

“My body, my choice.” Very much entrenched. And if you say “but it’s not your body,” they’ll still refer you to point A–“My body, my choice.” It’s like talking to programmed drones.
